Thanks for replying.

I will try it with my imac.

Another question, will only Verbatim DVD+R DL work? Or will Arita DVD+R DL also do the job?

Verbatim is one of the most reliable brand for burning navigation data discs. Taiyo Yuden may be the best of all but I've never heard anyone mentioning Arita media discs as successful for burning RNS-E or MFD discs..But who knows, you may be lucky

Just recieved my verbatim DVD+R DL s, i'm going to try it with a AD-7170A Optiarc drive, because one website mentioned it should work with that drive.

My question is, if i use the .mds file to burn the iso with imgburn, do i still have to manually adjust the Book type?

there is no point for any manual settings in imgburn (changing book type etc..). That was crucial in early imgburn versions, long time ago! Just select .mds, leave all settings default and burn with the slowest speed possible (2.4 or 4x is perfect). Imgburn will set everything automatic. All it matters now is:

I made a disc on a MacBook Pro but my RNSE would not read it, then decided to make a CD with the firmware update files as recommended on some sites using the files on the disc made, which the system then read and updated itself to 0650 but displayed an X-- as I used the speed camera version
